cargo bloat --release --crates
cargo bloat --release -n 20

Pin rust version ​

toml
# rust-toolchain.toml
[toolchain]
channel = "1.95.0"
components = ["rustfmt", "clippy"]

Optimize binary size ​

bash
# add to Cargo.toml

[profile.release]
opt-level = "z"
lto = true
codegen-units = 1
panic = "abort"
strip = true # Rust 1.59+ can strip symbols automatically
